Do NOT buy a cheap one. I have a black and decker. Decent unit, or so I thought. Can't see the lines in sunlight. What REALLY sucks though is that it's not really level! Over 30' it's about 4" lower

Hi All, I don't think I can send pics to this list so I've pulled them off. If they are important I can forward them directly to anyone that wants/needs them. A new resident in town has put up about
